Pregnant after IF

Intro from IF and a question

Hey ladies, I figure it’s about time I intro over here <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

I’ve been on the IVF board since February, our first round of IVF ended when none of our embryos made it to day 5. Our second round ended with a BFP! My beta’s were lower than the average at 35 (10dp5dt ) and 82 (12dp5dt) but as I’ve now been told many times it’s the doubling that mattersJ .

I had my ultrasound today at 6w4d. Heartbeat was 123 and baby was only a day behind measuring at 6w3d. The RE did seem as bit concerned about the size of the sac though as it is measuring 5 days behind.  I have to go back for another ultrasound in 2 weeks to make sure it is growing.

Have any of you had experience with this? Heartbeat on track, baby on track but a lagging sac?

 

Looking forward to getting to know you guys and hoping I can stay for a full 9 months!
